“Venetian blind” shadowing is a type of posterior acoustic artifact described as bands of linear shadows along lines of sight, often diverging on a convex probe [1]. Ironic to its name, it resembles “vertical blinds” rather than the classic horizontal appearance of Venetian window blinds (Figs. 1, 2).

Fun fact: An iconic painting called “The Venetian Blind” by Edmund Charles Tarbell draws us back to its history since the 18th century. Image available at: http://bertc.com/subsix/g90/images/tarbell20.jpg
